I'm so thrilled! Luke Russert finally reported a story worthy of his talents...

Last night on the NBC Nightly News, Little Luke did a story on...you may have to sit down, and make certain that you have no coffee or soda in your mouth - no sense in ruining another computer keyboard -...(drumroll):

The professional removal of chewing gum from the streets of Washington, DC.

I certainly hope that it is podcast so everyone can see this bravura performance. Perhaps they're finally catching on over at COMCAST/NBC.

I'm sure it was quite a sticky story to report.

I could go on but I think I'll stop

And took it literally.

Seriously, though, so you know how much it costs to get gum off of your Manolo Blahniks? He must have heard that complaint at his last cocktail party and got right on it.
